Learn More </h3> <p class="quotetxt"> Just as Milton Hershey was committed to community service, MHS alumni have long helped to strengthen our nation’s small towns, little neighborhoods and big cities…to the tune of 457,000 annual volunteer hours and as many as 152,000 people every year directly impacted by the philanthropic activities of our graduates.</p> <p> To honor this spirit of volunteerism, we will host our first-ever National Volunteer Day on August 16, 2009. From current students and staff in Hershey, Pa., to alumni living in 45 different states and employees of The Hershey Company, people in all corners of America will be touched by the MHS impact.</p> <p>Please stay tuned to learn more about specific National Volunteer Day efforts in communities throughout the country.</p> <p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> </div> </div></td> <td valign="top" width="268" > <div id="right_l2" > <ul> <li class="rmenu" > <h2><br/><strong>Spread</strong> the Word</h2> <dl> <dt class="on" ><a href="Spread-NationalVolunteerDay.asp"> National Volunteer Day </a></dt> <dt class="on" ><a href="Spread-MHS-Documentary.asp">Documentary</a></dt> <dd> </dd> <dt class="rmenuhdr"><a href="#">Links</a></dt> <dd> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.thehersheycompany.com" target="_blank">  The Hershey Company</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.thehersheycompany.com/social-responsibility/" target="_blank">  Corporate Social Responsibility</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.mhs-pa.org/" target="_blank">  Milton Hershey School</a></li> </ul> </dd> </dl> </li> <li class="ritem2" > <h2 class="dbwntxt" >MHS<br/>Documentary</h2> <table cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tr><td width="75"> <p class="elev mbwntxt bold" style="margin:5px 0 5px 0;">The Story<br/> behind the <br/>legacy</p> <a class="rtxt" href="Spread-MHS-Documentary.asp">Learn More »</a></td><td align="right" width="132"><a href="Spread-MHS-Documentary.asp" ><img src="images/video.png" /></a></td> </tr> </table> </li> </ul> </div> </td> </tr> </table></div> <div id="footer-area"> <div id="footer"> <div id="link-bar" > <p class="l"><a href="http://www.hersheys.com/privacy" target="_blank" >Privacy Policy </a> | <a href="http://www.mhs-pa.org/contact" target="_blank">Contact Us </a> </p> <p class="r"> <a href="redirect.asp?ref=http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=www.thehersheylegacy.com/index.asp&t=Check out The Hershey Legacy!"><img src="images/facebook.png" alt="facebook" /> <a href="redirect.asp?ref=http://www.twitter.com/home?status=http:/www.thehersheylegacy.com/index.asp&t=Check out The Hershey Legacy!"><img src="images/twitter.png" alt="twitter" /> <a href="redirect.asp?ref=http://www.youtube.com/user/thehersheylegacy"><img src="images/youtube.png" alt="youtube" /></a> <a href="http://www.hersheys.com" target="_blank" ><img src="images/hersheylogo.png" alt="Hersey logo" /></a> <a href="http://www.mhs-pa.org" target="_blank" ><img src="images/mhslogo.png" alt="MHS logo" /> </a> </p> </div> <div id="copyright" > <p>&copy 2009 Milton Hershey School and The Hershey Company.
